Outlaw King | Based on a True Story

Outlaw King had a lot of promise. As I was watching it, I was really happy, but then the climax went completely off the rails. What’s up with these Scottish history movies ending poorly? I don’t know if that ultimately makes this a bad movie, but it certainly sours my opinion of it. But the First Scottish thing of Independence was a fascinatingly complex 30-year-long conflict, with several distinct phases, which this film is mixing up for some reason. Scottish history is really difficult to understand through that thick accent ------------------------------------------------------------ Connected videos: 7:10 - Mary Queen of Scots: /watch/MrV9rStR2V2R9 7:45 - Scholarly vs. Public vs. Pop History: /watch/IVcK2DI3hBu3K 9:05 - Braveheart: /watch/M9E-0MfcEhVc- 10:20 - Historical Orthodoxy, Revisionism, and Post-Revisionism: /watch/wRGxYe3sGQxsx 15:45 - Things Movies Cannot do Accurately: /watch/AgXsEgj88kE8s ------------------------------------------------------------ Crawford, Robert.

The film largely takes place during the 3-year historical period from 1304, when Bruce decides to rebel against the rule of Edward I over Scotland, thus becoming an "outlaw", up to the 1307 Battle of Loudoun Hill. Outlaw King was co-written, produced, and directed by David Mackenzie.[2][3][4] It stars Chris Pine, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Florence Pugh, Billy Howle, Sam Spruell, Tony Curran, Callan Mulvey, James Cosmo, and Stephen Dillane. ------------------------------------------------------------ Hashtags: #history #RobertBruce#OutlawKing #review #BasedOnATrueStory
